Well I thought I would start my new blog off with something ANYBODY with Flight Simulator X can do. For many of the default FSX aircraft, the out side textures and Virtual Cockpit textures are blurred and imposible to read. This is NOT good if you like to fly realistically from the VC because you cant read the gauges, and it is a pain if you like to take and share screen-shots because the airplane always looks out of focus. The fix to this is really simple and quick.

First go to http://www.simviation.com/ and in the upper right hand corner type in the search box for example, "Cessna Fix." Somewhere in the results you will find the download to fix the default blurred files.

One important thing to do is read the Read Me file and back up ANY file you intend to replace or modify. This will prevent you from having to make the dreaded full reinstall.

In the photos above, you will notice one is REALLY blurred and one is crisp. The key differences are in the overall sharpness and if you notice the tires and paint look 10X better.

The airplanes which currently have texture fixes are:
Piper Cub
Grumman Goose
Cessna 208
Maule Orion
DeHaviland Beaver
Aircreation Ultralight
Extra 300
Beechcraft Baron
Beechcraft King Air

There may be more but I haven't found them yet.
I enjoy blogging so I hopefully will post here often,
